Cumbria care homes and Cumbria nursing homes

Cumbria is the 3rd largest county in England by area yet is only
the 41st largest by population. This is due it it being a largely
rural area, with only five towns having a population of more than
20,000, the largest being its' only city Carlisle.

Most of the centre of the county is taken up by the Lake
District National Park, one of largest National Parks in the Uk and
a very popular toursit destination.

Statistically Cumbria has one of the least ethnically diverse
populations in the UK with 96% of the population being classed as
White British at the last census. Nevertheless, its' black and
ethnic minority population is growing at twice the national
average.

As of the 2001 census there were 64,075 people aged over 70
living in Cumbria, approximately 13.1% of the total population.
Within the county there are 175 residential care and nursing care
homes providing services for older people and people with learning
disabilities.
